#1 Problem for Every Leader, Pt.3
ByIf we want to go to the next level then we must learn from those at the next level. This takes humility. Wisdom comes to those who are humble. Leaders are learners. Learners are humble.
Seeking wisdom from another is accepting the reality that “I don’t know everything”. It is so hard to admit that because of pride, but when I do I am freed up to truly learn and grow.
The #1 Problem for Every Leader is that we DON’T HUMBLE OURSELVES AT THE FEET OF ANOTHER. This has a couple of layers to it:
1. We don’t LISTEN TO JESUS AND DO EXACTLY WHAT HE SAYS. Jesus gives the dream. He is the dream master, and leaders are the dream casters. The vision Jesus gives must be received otherwise everything else tanks.
2. We don’t listen to WISE LEADERS AROUND US. We don’t even seek to intentionally place ourselves under the tutelage or guidance of other wise leaders. Because of pride, laziness, and deception we fall into the trap of doing it alone and eventually trying to do too much, and consequently accomplishing very little for Jesus, getting burnt out and frustrating everyone else around us. Man, I know what that is like:)
